    Sil 1.1.1 Extraction issues

    Hello, I am having some trouble when I try to extract the files of sil 1.1.1 (using Windows Vista) when I try to extract the files, the new folder creates a new file called sil, (and one called Mac OSX) which have the same name as the folder the extraction is trying to create. This causes windows to complain that the file has the same name The exact error message is "there is already a file with the same name as the folder name you specified, specify a different name"
    Sil
    Type : File
    Size 0 Bytes
    Try again Skip
    When I try again I get sent into an infinite loop
    When I skip The file extracts as being just Sil a 0 byte file with no type.

    What am I doing wrong?/ What should I do?

    Try re-downloading Sil 1.1.1, and extract into a different folder.
    My best try at PosChengband 7.0.0's nightmare-mode on Angband.live:

    If I'm offline I'm probably in the middle of maintaining Gentoo or something-Linux or other.

      Thanks for the report ussgordoncaptain. It is probably to do with the fact that I made the zip files on my Mac, whereas I usually get Scatha to do it on Windows. We'll upload a fixed one soon.

        I tried doing that, same problem persists, I the folder gets made with two files, one called _MACOSX and the other sil, both with 0 bytes of data in them.

          I've uploaded a new version that should remove this problem.

                Unfortunately, the archive is ZERO bytes this time, for sure half, where are you?
